建立了弯曲圆盘换能器镜像虚源等效模型,利用脉动球源互作用原理对弯曲圆盘与其镜像虚源的互辐射作用进行理论分析,给出了互辐射阻抗及系统谐振频率的数学表达。提出了虚源互作用的低频换能器设计思想,将刚性反射板引入弯曲圆盘换能器临近辐射面的声场中,通过理论分析、有限元模拟和样机实验研究了低频换能器谐振频率与主要结构参数之间的关系。结果表明,弯曲圆盘与镜像虚源间的互辐射作用可以有效降低换能器的谐振频率,当反射板直径与弯曲圆盘辐射面直径相当时,谐振频率可降低至其自身谐振频率的50%以下;当反射板直径为弯曲圆盘辐射面直径2倍时,谐振频率可降低至37%。     

Effectiveness of radiation processing in elimination of Campylobacter from poultry meat

Campylobacter, a common poultry intestine commensal, is a well known cause of human gastric illnesses across the globe. Consumption of contaminated poultry meat is a major cause of Campylobacter related infections. In the present study, radiation sensitivity of indigenous strains of C. jejuni and C. coli isolated from poultry was evaluated. The decimal reduction dose (D₁₀) values of different Campylobacter isolates at 0-4 °C in saline and blood broth were in the range of 0.120-0.210 kGy and 0.170-0.234 kGy, respectively. D₁₀ values in chicken meat homogenate for Campylobacter were in the range of 0.110-0.190 kGy. Chicken meat samples were inoculated with C. jejuni and exposed to gamma radiation to study the effectiveness of radiation treatment in elimination of Campylobacter. Radiation treatment with a dose of 1 kGy could achieve complete elimination of 10⁵ CFU of Campylobacter/g in poultry meat samples. No recovery of Campylobacter was observed, even after enrichment and selective plating in 1 kGy treated chicken meat samples stored at 4 °C up to 7 days. Present study shows that irradiation of poultry meat with 1 kGy can ensure safety of poultry meat.

Observation of thermoluminescence induced by fission fragments

Abstract

Thermoluminescence induced in CaF₂ powder by fission fragments emanating from a uranium foil bombarded by fast neutrons has been measured as a function of neutron fluence. A linear relationship between the glow produced and the fast neutron fluence between 5 × 10¹⁰ and 6.5 × 10¹¹ n/cm² has been obtained, thus establishing the feasibility of the use of this method for fast-neutron dosimetry. A limitation of the method is that, if the fissile foil is not separated from the phosphor after irradiation, the TL produced by the α-disintegration of ²³⁸U may eventually mask the fission-induced TL.     

Phase-field modeling of void evolution and swelling in materials under irradiation

Void swelling is an important phenomenon observed in both nuclear fuels and cladding materials in operating nuclear reactors. In this work we develop a phase-field model to simulate void evolution and void volume change in irradiated materials. Important material processes, including the generation of defects such as vacancies and self-interstitials, their diffusion and annihilation, and void nucleation and evolution, have been taken into account in this model. The thermodynamic and kinetic properties, such...     

Density effects of heavy-ion stopping power in high temperature matter

Abstract

The stopping power and range for Xe ions in high temperature matter (partially ionized plasmas) have been calculated using the dielectric response function method. Calculations have been made for a target matter Al (Z = 13) over a wide range of temperatures and densities considering a finite temperature model. The stopping powers obtained have smaller values in comparison with those of a zero temperature model. The stopping power strongly depends on the density and temperature of the target material, and the projectile ion energy.
